| They charged a bit over $200 which is one reason that I took it back in today so they could fix a few things that I wasn't happy with. I wanted the writing on the top of the cover to be color matched to my car, not Hemi orange and there were a couple of spots that looked really bad on it. I think he said they must have burned it with a buffer or something. I don't care what they did, I just want them to fix it.
It was kinda a shit job (up close and to me) around the lettering. It wasn't crisp like I wanted it to be. It looked like they rushed it. Hopefully the guy will fix it and I will be happier about it. All in all, for Maaco, I didn't think it was too bad. | |

| Thanks guys. It does look good, I mean it couldn't have looked worse  It just kinda pissed me off when I dropped it off the first time the guy immediately started kinda whining about how the lettering is so hard to do and blah blah blah and then I get it back and it is wrong......so he'll just be doing it again (and a better job) or I will keep taking it back. Don't get me wrong. I do like it, it's just I'm being a perfectionist. Especially since I have seen so many engine covers that have such intricate paint jobs on them and this guys whines about the stupid lettering. Gimme a break! Suck it Up Pansy! that's what I say.....  | |

| From what I saw on Saturday, it looked fantastic! But I know how it goes... I'm a perfectionist about stuff like that too and as the owner, you always notice things that probably nobody else ever will. | |
